A PIE IN THE FACE: Leadership from Both Sides of the Blood Bag
Description
Corporate executive turned national blood donation advocate, Lauren Ward Larsen spent the decade after becoming a 200+ pint blood recipient traveling the country assisting blood centers and meeting others who'd been given a second chance in life by volunteer blood donors. In this session, she will share insights and examples of some of the best leadership practices from those who perform the transfusions, donate the blood, and benefit from receiving it. Whether you're looking for good leadership stories to share with your staff, or you want to be reminded about why you chose this career field, or you just want a few laughs (at Lauren's—or maybe your—expense), join us for this inspiring and entertaining session. And, if you stay until the end, you can even find out what blood center CEO was willing to take a pie in the face for the sake of good leadership.

  • Describe five new ideas your blood center could employ if you "borrowed" from some of the leaders in the field.
  • List and describe in detail at least one principle you plan to personally implement to improve your leadership style.
  • List four leadership strategies that could have a direct impact on your blood center.
